Voice of the Borderlands
Winner:Spur Awards -Poetry (2006)
Drum Hadley's poems, said Allen Ginsberg, are "like time and death." Gathering forty years of Hadley's work, this extraordinary collection ranges from powerful lyrics to droll Western "haiku":
A Long Day's Ride
"My horse looks smaller than it did when I left."
It also commemorates one man's richly eventful career as a poet, rancher, and dedicated conservationist. A friend and literary associate of writers including Robert Creeley and Charles Olson, Hadley is a poet of and for the land he has helped to preserve:
"Wash me along the rims of arroyo rocks,
Carry the dust, carry the sands,
Carry these words, my seeds,
Down these blue desert valleys, away."
